Review and Videos from the Mr. Bradley N. family (Ham Lake): Alex has taught piano lessons to our daughters for more than eight years. We have noticed the continual growth in their ability, and most noticeably, their playing reflects a very musical style, not simply an emphasis on mechanics. In addition, Alex incorporates music theory into their lessons, and our oldest daughter has competed in regional music-theory competitions. Alex doesn't always “go easy” on students; he expects more from them and the result is that he brings out more of their musical talents. We enjoy hearing them practice – the music they make is very beautiful! We heartily recommend Alex for piano instruction at all levels.
